Had great fun chatting to Jen. You should check out her podcast showcase the talent of the north (plus me, haha).
'I know so many neurodivergent writers who have had rejections for "unrelatable" characters.'
Novelist @alethearlyons.bsky.social joins me on Northern Voices today to talk about diversity, writing and why AI isn't actually 'intelligent'.

If you want a new fantasy read but you don’t want to limit yourself to one book, buy the Haven Chronicles.

When people-pleaser Jay gains guardianship of a curious tree spirit, she must find the joy in being human. But if Jay can't confront the lies and insecurities eroding her oldest friendship, she risks teaching the birch that life is about hiding who you really are.

I know it's early but this guy's been chomping at the bit to say hello again after his brief appearance. He doesn't get out much for a lot of the year. I thought he could have a week to himself - his story is Santa's EARLY Christmas after all.

Hi all!
Social media is like screaming into the void, something I know a lot of you feel. No matter what I try, my reach shrinks. Hopefully, a break will make my brain magically click on this marketing thing.
Street Team, cover reveal, and ARC allocating will remain open. All lynx in my bye-oh.
